Hmm. Maybe I’ve been misunderstood. Atheists, and others, as civilians are not what I was talking about. States that were effectively officially atheist. Communists, and to my mind, Nazis, at the forefront.

Nations that had a State religion, be it Christian, Jewish, or Muslim, even the worst of them, didn’t and don’t compare to Communist regimes, nor to say the Aztec empire.

The comment was about Empires and States and what they’ve been responsible over the course of history, when at their worst.

Guess what… the United States is another “officially atheist” nation, isn’t it?
